What's the difference between new char[10] and new char(10)

Question

In C++, what\'s the difference between

char *a = new char[10];

and

char *a = new char(10);

Thanks!

Answer 1

new char[10];

dynamically allocates a char[10] (array of char, length 10), with indeterminate values, while

new char(10);

again, dynamically allocates a single char, with an integer value of 10.
